| PER-4527 | Fix PPA logging through PKCS#11 Fixed a use case when PPA logging through PKCS#11 was causing program hang after card write operation. |

There has been a change in default Windows configuration file regarding Firefox browser – see https://doc.nexusgroup.com/display/PUB/Firefox+interoperability+for+Personal+Desktop+Client for rationale. If you want to keep using Firefox with PKCS#11 interface instead of native OS integration on Windows, re-enable “P11_AlwaysLoggedInMode=1” in the configuration file for it. This is valid from Personal Desktop Client 5.8.3.
